Item 8.01. Other Events
ProLiance Energy, LLC, a subsidiary of ProLiance Holdings, LLC (ProLiance), had $130 million borrowing capacity available through a syndicated credit facility scheduled to expire on May 24, 2012. ProLiance today announced that ProLiance Energy closed on a new two-year $120 million credit facility effective May 18, 2012. The facility will be used for general corporate purposes.
ProLiance, a nonutility energy marketing affiliate of Vectren Corporation and Citizens Energy Group, provides services to a broad range of municipalities, utilities, industrial operations, schools, and healthcare institutions located throughout the Midwest and Southeast United States. ProLiance’s customers include Vectren’s Indiana utilities and Citizens’ utilities. ProLiance’s primary businesses include gas marketing, gas portfolio optimization, and other portfolio and energy management services. Consistent with its ownership percentage, Vectren is allocated 61 percent of ProLiance’s profits and losses; however, governance and voting rights remain at 50 percent for each member. Therefore, ProLiance is not consolidated by Vectren.
